Andre Carpathie, the Director of AI and Autopilot Vision at Tesla, believes that machine learning is the way forward for self-driving cars - a method that involves turning everything into a learning problem and collecting a huge amount of data. However, not every problem can be solved with machine learning in the short term, and building L5 vehicles today is unlikely to involve learning, making LiDAR a necessary crutch for the time being.
